Summary: | A stunning collection of thirty-five folktales from Guatemala which transport the reader to the haunting stories of witches and shamans, spiritualists and apies, Naguales, or persons who have the power to change into animal forms and devils. These stories are educational, instructive, mysterious, wise and sometimes simply funny. |
